Breakfast Smoothie

So far this has been my go-to breakfast this week on the days that I don’t lift and get my protein smoothie…

Not sure what exactly to call this either – Strawberry PB Banana Chia Seed Smoothie w/ a Matcha booster ? 

  • Fresh/frozen strawberries – I ended up using about 5 medium sized fresh strawberries and liked it better than using the frozen strawberries pictured above.
  • 1 banana
  • 1 tsp organic peanut butter
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp matcha powder
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • Some ice

I’ve been experimenting with the measurements based on taste this week but all of these ingredients blended together make for a pretty awesome breakfast smoothie regardless.

Woohoo first day of my blog and already tried a new recipe – Matcha Powder Avocado Smoothie!

I was shopping around Cost Plus World Market the other day and stumbled upon this lovely package of Matcha tea powder. If you’re not eating processed foods like me, don’t worry because the tea powder is the only ingredient! There are other sweetened options that you can buy if you want to go that route as well. Anyway, this smoothie was delicious and super filling.. a must try! Would love to hear other variations!

Ingredients

1/2-1 Banana (preference)
1/2 Avocado
1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tablespoon Matcha tea powder
1-2 tablespoons natural nut butter (optional)
